A fairly typical Jack Reacher story, and probably a good introduction if there's anyone who has not read any of the series, but also for fans to have a good, quick dose of Reacherness.

I think the story is a good encapsulation of everything Reacher. His personality comes through all the way, his willingness to just move on the spur of the moment into danger, his ability to get out of danger when it comes, and his ability to figure out what's going on before it happens.

A short story. Short and to the point. A fast and satisfying read. ( )
